Jens Lehmann urged Rangers and other clubs to sign goalkeeper Michael McGovern after his man-of-the-match performance against Germany on Tuesday.

A breathtaking display by the Northern Ireland No1 enabled his team to hold the world champions to a narrow 1-0 win in their Euro 2016 group match and help smooth their passage into the knockout stages.

Former Arsenal keeper Lehmann was hugely impressed with McGovern’s display and told clubs across Europe to sign the 31-year-old, who is a free agent after his contract expired at Hamilton.

“He was fantastic and he kept them in the game several times, I have heard he is running out of contract and he is a free agent now,” Lehmann said live on the BBC. “Can he speak German? I will ask a couple of clubs to take him after today’s performance.”

McGovern made a string of outstanding saves to keep his side in the match and finished the game with more completed passes than any of his team-mates.
